I'm betting that the jeans, shoe and epidermis wiped it clean before it went in. That's a helluva way to get the stigmata.

Ickx prooved the case, and the next year there no longer was a running start.

These Javelin catchers have no right to be surprised when they get hit. Javelled? - is that a word?

In pain OK but not surprised. The people throwing these pointy things, they're aiming at you.

Do you know anything about that photo? Where it was taken? How it was done? Does the moon really look that big in some parts of the country? Or is that a composite photo?

It's done with a telephoto lense. Even a 200MM-300MM lense will make the moon look pretty big.
